Re: Aisake and Tiernay
in reply to a message by brydz
Tiernay (usually spelled Tierney) is TEER-nee. Aisake, I haven't the faintest idea. You'd have to give us an idea of where it's from.
I don't like either one. Aisake reminds me of rice wine (sake). Tiernay sounds like "tyranny"--there's a pleasant association for a child. He'll never leave the terrible twos behind. :-/

Aisake is the name of an Aussie Rules footballer who was invited to play Australia after his older brother Setanta made the switch from Irish Gaelic style football to AFL. I read somewhere that his name is not Irish, but in fact Fijian which is his mothers nationality. I havent the slightest how to pronounce it either, but it looks nice written.
I've heard Aisake's name on Irish TV, they pronounce it EYE-zak-ee, like Isaac with an ee sound at the end. It's definitely not Irish, anyway.
Well, since I'm not at all Aussie, I'm afraid I can't help you there, lol. It does look nice, but I see romanized Japanese--the words "ai" ("love") and "sake" (as I said before, an alcoholic drink). So I have an image of a drunk guy, first and foremost! :D
